My Camino

When Monique took her first steps on the Camino Frances, the ancient pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostela, in April 2007, she had no idea what was awaiting her, and that was probably a good thing. It became an intensive walk through the outside world to the inner world. A journey through the landscapes of fear, addiction, recognition, spirituality and love. Amazing people crossed her path and intense experiences offered the opportunity to grow and to break new grounds in life. In My Camino she takes you to the way of Saint James, where you become a part of her experiences, sorrow, pain, fear, pleasure and joy.

After years of traveling and walking around the world, Monique spent a decade in Mali, where her experiences, wanderlust, and love for the country and its people resulted in the creation of Papillon Reizen travel agency. During the worldwide crisis in 2020 she moved back to Europe to start a new phase in her life, and a new company, Papillon Fairtrade.
